Most of Europe is in the clutches of the Roman Empire. Commodus has succeeded his father Marcus Aurelius, the philosopher Emperor and is exerting tyrannical influence. The Praetorians keep a strict and oppressive rule over the entire Empire, which is defended and (outside Rome) largely policed by the Legions. Many Barbarian outposts and enclaves exist peacefully outside Imperial rule particularly in Britannia, Gaul and Germania. These people however always live in fear of the Legions, which threaten their culture and their very existence. If they stand united, they may just hold them off.

Roma Victor® is the pilot project of RedBedlam Ltd., a Brighton-based development company set up with the express purpose of building compelling and exciting virtual worlds. Since it's inception back in May 2001, RedBedlam's ethos has been one of community involvement, with the belief that the best products are those that are built with the player in mind. To this end, each and every aspect of this game's development has taken place with direct participation from the online gaming community.

The Commercial Test began on the 5th of May 2005 and the full historically authentic virtual world of Roma Victor® is now expected to be launched during the autumn of 2005, when thousands of players will log into the game world simultaneously and begin to shape their own Roman Empire. Roma Victor has now reached a crucial stage in its development and working closely with the dedicated, knowledgeable and enthusiastic people that make up the Roma Victor Community, RedBedlam is making excellent progress with this massive and ambitious project.
